The eldest sister was reborn and the younger sister traveled through time. I just want to survive.

Because of their ostentatious identities and appearances, Yan Muxi and his party did not stay outside the mansion for too long and returned home before noon.

Not long after returning home, the people sent to follow the witch doctor sent a message saying that they had lost the person, but it was not a complete failure.

Before she lost the person, the female witch doctor went to the alley at the back door of Yan's mansion. When she came out of the alley, her hands were empty. The pastries she had bought after waiting in line for half a day were gone.

After listening to Yin Xia's message, Yan Muxi's mind was full of questions.

It was confusing enough to see a female witch doctor who looked like a demon queuing up to buy cakes, but these cakes were actually bought for the Yan family... Could it be that the female witch doctor was also one of Yan Yongchen's lovers?

If you think about it carefully, it is not impossible. After all, all the women in the Yan Mansion are devoted to Yan Yongchen, so one more would not be too many.

However, the witch doctor's face looked like it was burned. Not only were her facial features deformed beyond recognition, but most of her head was covered with hyperplastic scars that would not regenerate hair. If her guess was true, Yan Yongchen was too picky!

Since leaving home to go to the Colosseum that day, Yu Wantai did not return home until ten days later. When he came back, he handed a half-big box to Yan Muxi.

Thinking it was a gift for herself, Yan Muxi opened the box on the spot, but she didn't expect that the box was filled with banknotes.

There was a box full of banknotes, all of which were in denominations of ten thousand taels. It was estimated that there were at least millions of taels.

Seeing her confusion, Yu Wantai explained: "These are the revenues of the Colosseum this year, you can keep them!"

"Can the Colosseum earn so much money in a year?" Yan Muxi was full of disbelief.

Yu Wantai did not deny it. "Don't worry, there is no problem with the money, just keep it well." After saying that, he went into the bathroom to wash up.

Staring at the box of banknotes, Yan Muxi's heart was beating like a drum and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

The Colosseum is located at the foot of Lushan Mountain in the northern suburbs. It has been there for twenty years and makes profits by betting on fights between wild beasts.

There is no bottom line for gamblers who are desperate to lose money. People lose their lives in the Colosseum almost every day, including some playboys from meritorious families.

At first, many meritorious families caused trouble for the Colosseum because of the deaths of their children, and even sued the Colosseum, but in the end, all ended in vain.

Later, everyone learned that the owner behind the Colosseum was Prince Rong, a tyrant in Dafeng who was more intimidating than the emperor.

Twenty years ago, Prince Rong was indeed more intimidating than the emperor. It is no exaggeration to say that the imperial power of the Yu family was preserved thanks to Prince Rong.

Nowadays, times have changed and not many people remember the great achievements of Prince Rong. All they know is that Prince Rong is noble and should not be offended.

Yan Muxi had heard before that the person behind the Colosseum was Prince Rong, and he also knew that the Colosseum made more profits than ordinary casinos, but he didn't expect the profits to be so huge.

The annual income would be over one million taels of silver, and over ten years it would be over ten million taels, which is equivalent to the annual tax revenue of the Dafeng National Treasury.

They were unscrupulously amassing wealth right under the emperor's nose. Could Emperor Yuanjing be so tolerant of Prince Rong's Mansion?

The sixteenth day of the twelfth lunar month was the day Yan Muching got married, and Gu Yuelan's six-month mourning period had come to an end, but the two of them still entered the Eastern Palace on the same day.

The palace was close to the Dingbei Marquis's palace. On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Yan Muxi went to the Marquis's palace first to add makeup to Gu Yuelan.

After not seeing each other for half a year, Gu Yuelan has lost a lot of weight. She has lost her baby fat and has a pointed chin. With a little makeup, she has become a pretty and beautiful lady.

However, the substance remains the same, Gu Yuelan's inner nature is still the same unruly as before. When she saw Yan Muxi, she took her arm and refused to let go.

"This county lady has been looking forward to it for a few days. I have been looking forward to it for a long time. Yan Muxi, you are finally here... You don't know how I have been living for the past six months. It's been more difficult than being in prison. When I think about the days of entering the East Palace in the future, I really want to sleep it off. There is no point in waking up anyway..."

The governess next to her was almost coughing up phlegm, but Gu Yuelan just turned her head away, pretending not to hear and ignoring her.

Yan Muxi didn't know whether she should feel sorry for Gu Yuelan first or for the old nanny. After teaching the prince's concubine to be like this, the old nanny would not be able to complete her mission when she returned to the palace.

Before entering the house, Gu Yuelan pulled Yan Muxi and ran away, locking the nanny and the servants outside the house.

"What is the county lady doing?" Yan Muxi asked with a smile, panting.

Gu Yuelan rolled her eyes at the door, "What can I do? I just find them annoying. They are all afraid that I will have a moment of comfort."

"They have no choice. It's not easy for anyone. If they don't serve well, they might lose their lives."

"Tsk, you are so kind, not only do you want your sister to get better, but you also feel sorry for your servants." Gu Yuelan sighed, "Don't worry, no one will lose their life because of me. I have asked the Queen for the foster nanny, and I will only blame me from now on."

Yan Muxi wanted to say that the governess's life was saved, but it was hard to say how long it would last, because Gu Yuelan might anger her to death at any time.

After catching his breath, Yan Muxi pushed the box in his arms in front of Gu Yuelan, "This is a gift for you to add to your makeup. See if you like it."

Glancing at it, it was another jewelry box. Gu Yuelan didn't even think about opening it, and said perfunctorily, "I like it. I must like the gift you gave me."

"Don't spoil the fun! Open it and take a look." Yan Muxi had a mysterious expression and pushed the box closer.

Could there be an unexpected surprise? Gu Yuelan opened the box in confusion. She guessed correctly. The box contained a headdress, but there was also a small box next to the headdress.

She couldn't wait to open the small box, and what she saw was a set of small and exquisite darts. The darts were black in color, with circles of lines on the surface, and they were shiny and did not look like ordinary iron or copper darts.

She asked happily, "Isn't this made of iron? It's so beautiful!"

Yan Muxi smiled and explained, "It's made of iron, so it's sharp and not easy to corrode. You can't touch knives, arrows, or sticks in the East Palace, but you can still play with the small darts secretly."

Before she finished speaking, she was hugged by Gu Yuelan, who was so happy that she cried out, "You are so nice, I really didn't make friends with you in vain... It's over, it's over, wasn't the dowry gift I gave you a little too little..."

Yan Muxi's expression was serious, "The dowry gift the county lady gave was indeed a little small!" Then he smiled, "It's okay if it's small. With our relationship, there's no need to worry about it!"

"We have a good relationship, but we still have to be careful about what we have to do. After all, brothers have to settle accounts clearly! Next time you add makeup, I will definitely make it up to you." Realizing that she had said the wrong thing, Gu Yuelan quickly touched the wood, "Pah, pah, pah, there will be no next time, absolutely not next time."

Yan Muxi looked at her with amusement, "Please reflect on the matter of adding dowry, I won't stay any longer."

"Why are you leaving right after you got here? No, stay a little longer." Gu Yuelan hugged Yan Muxi and refused to let her go.

"I have to go back to Yan Mansion before noon to help my elder sister with her makeup. I really don't have time to stay longer today. I will definitely accompany the county lady next time I have the chance."

"I don't care. Anyway, you are not allowed to leave. If you dare to leave like this, our friendship will end..." Forget it, the friendship still needs to be maintained. Gu Yunlan thought about threatening words for a long time, and could only say, "I will not return the dowry I owe you."
